Ancient Rome was flush in rich colors, lavish outfits, and historically influential characters. The ROME: Antony Deck focuses on the time period of the Second Triumvirates of Rome's dramatic history. The Second Triumvirate ended when Octavian defeated Mark Antony and Cleopatra, and eventually became the first Emperor of Rome (and was given the name, Augustus).

The ROME: Antony Tuck Box has Blue textured background images, and is accented with GOLD FOIL designs. Antony's Tuck features a majestic Lion and a border design with hints of Egyptian styling (symbolizing Antony's final years in Egypt, with Cleopatra). The Tuck Box includes the Roman banner, Laurel Wreath and SPQR elements on the Back. The Top of Antony's Tuck is printed with the words, "TARUM ET CLAMA DIMIT CANIBUS QUATIT" - Latin for "Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war."
